To use these messages, you must rst use NRPN MSB and NRPN LSB messages
to specify the parameter to be controlled, and then use Data Entry messages to
specify the value of the speci ed parameter. Once an NRPN parameter has been
speci ed, all Data Entry messages received on that channel will modify the value
of that parameter. To prevent accidents, it is recommended that you set RPN Null

●System Exclusive Messages Related to Mode Settings
These messages are used to initialize a device to GS or General MIDI mode, or change
the operating mode.
When creating performance data, a “GM1 System On” message should be inserted
at the beginning of a General MIDI 1 score, a “GM2 System On” message at the
beginning of a General MIDI 2 score, and a “GS Reset” message at the beginning of a
GS music data. Each song should contain only one mode message as appropriate for
the type of data. (Do not insert two or more mode setting messages in a single song.)

3. Parameter Address Map (Model ID = 42H)
This map indicates address, size, Data (range), Parameter, Description, and Default Value of parameters which can be transferred using and “Data set 1 (DT1).”
All the numbers of address, size, Data, and Default Value are indicated in 7-bit Hexadecimal-form.
■ Address Block Map
An outlined address map of the Exclusive Communication is as follows;
There are two ways in which GS data is transmitted: Individual Parameter Transmission in which individual parameters are transmitted one by one, and Bulk Dump Transmission in
which a large amount of data is transmitted at once.
■ Individual Parameters
Individual Parameter Transmission transmits data (or requests data) for one parameter as one exclusive message (one packet of “F0 ..... F7”).
In Individual Parameter Transmission, you must use the Address and Size listed in the following “Parameter Address Map.” Addresses marked at “#” cannot be used as starting
addresses.
●System Parameters
Parameters related to the system of the device are called System Parameters.

* SCALE TUNING is a function that allows ne adjustment to the pitch of each note in the octave. The pitch of each identically-named note in all octaves will change
simultaneously. A setting of +/- 0 cent (40H) is equal temperament. Refer to section 4. Supplementary material, “The Scale Tune Feature.”
In MIDI documentation, data values and addresses/sizes of exclusive messages etc.
are expressed as hexadecimal values for each 7 bits.
The following table shows how these correspond to decimal numbers.
* Decimal values such as MIDI channel, bank select, and program change are listed as
one (1) greater than the values given in the above table.
* A 7-bit byte can express data in the range of 128 steps. For data where greater
precision is required, we must use two or more bytes. For example, two
hexadecimal numbers aa bbH expressing two 7-bit bytes would indicate a value of
aa x 128 + bb.
* In the case of values which have a ± sign, 00H = -64, 40H = ±0, and 7FH = +63, so
that the decimal expression would be 64 less than the value given in the above
chart. In the case of two types, 00 00H = -8192, 40 00H = ±0, and 7F 7FH = +8191.
For example if aa bbH were expressed as decimal, this would be aa bbH - 40 00H =
aa x 128 + bb - 64 x 128.
* Data marked “nibbled” is expressed in hexadecimal in 4-bit units. A value expressed
as a 2-byte nibble 0a 0bH has the value of a x 16 + b.
<Example1>
What is the decimal expression of 5AH?
From the preceding table, 5AH = 90
<Example2>
What is the decimal expression of the value 12 34H given as hexadecimal for each 7
bits?
From the preceding table, since 12H = 18 and 34H = 52
18 x 128 + 52 = 2356
<Example3>
What is the decimal expression of the nibbled value 0A 03 09 0D?
From the preceding table, since 0AH = 10, 03H = 3, 09H = 9, 0DH = 13
((10 x 16 + 3) x 16 + 9) x 16 + 13 = 41885
<Example4>
What is the nibbled expression of the decimal value 1258?
16) 1258
16) 78... 10
16) 4... 14
0... 4
Since from the preceding table, 0 = 00H, 4 = 04H, 14 = 0EH, 10 = 0AH, the answer is
00 04 0E 0AH.
●Examples of Actual MIDI Messages
<Example1> 92 3E 5F
9n is the Note-on status, and n is the MIDI channel number. Since 2H = 2, 3EH = 62,
and 5FH = 95, this is a Note-on message with MIDI CH = 3, note number 62 (note
name is D4), and velocity 95.
<Example2> CE 49
CnH is the Program Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. Since EH = 14
and 49H = 73, this is a Program Change message with MIDI CH = 15, program number
74 (Flute in GS).
<Example3> EA 00 28
EnH is the Pitch Bend Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. The 2nd byte
(00H = 0) is the LSB and the 3rd byte (28H = 40) is the MSB, but Pitch Bend Value is a
signed number in which 40 00H (= 64 x 128 + 0 = 8192) is 0, so this Pitch Bend Value
is 28 00H - 40 00H = 40 x 128 + 0 - (64 x 128 + 0) = 5120 - 8192 = -3072
If the Pitch Bend Sensitivity is set to 2 semitones, -8192 (00 00H) will cause the pitch
to change 200 cents, so in this case -200 x (-3072) / (-8192) = -75 cents of Pitch Bend is
being applied to MIDI channel 11.
<Example4> B3 64 00 65 00 06 0C 26 00 64 7F 65 7F
BnH is the Control Change status, and n is the MIDI channel number. For Control
Changes, the 2nd byte is the control number, and the 3rd byte is the value. In a case
in which two or more messages consecutive messages have the same status, MIDI
has a provision called “running status” which allows the status byte of the second
and following messages to be omitted. Thus, the above messages have the following
meaning.
In other words, the above messages specify a value of 0C 00H for RPN parameter
number 00 00H on MIDI channel 4, and then set the RPN parameter number to 7F
7FH.
RPN parameter number 00 00H is Pitch Bend Sensitivity, and the MSB of the value
indicates semitone units, so a value of 0CH = 12 sets the maximum pitch bend range
to ±12 semitones (1 octave). (On GS sound sources the LSB of Pitch Bend Sensitivity
is ignored, but the LSB should be transmitted anyway (with a value of 0) so that
operation will be correct on any device.)
Once the parameter number has been speci ed for RPN or NRPN, all Data Entry
messages transmitted on that same channel will be valid, so after the desired value
has been transmitted, it is a good idea to set the parameter number to 7F 7FH to
prevent accidents. This is the reason for the (B3) 64 7F (B3) 65 7F at the end.
It is not desirable for performance data (such as Standard MIDI File data) to contain
many events with running status as given in <Example 4>. This is because if playback
is halted during the song and then rewound or fast-forwarded, the sequencer may
not be able to transmit the correct status, and the sound source will then
misinterpret the data. Take care to give each event its own status.
It is also necessary that the RPN or NRPN parameter number setting and the value
setting be done in the proper order. On some sequencers, events occurring in the
same (or consecutive) clock may be transmitted in an order di erent than the order
in which they were received. For this reason it is a good idea to slightly skew the time
of each event (about 1 tick for TPQN = 96, and about 5 ticks for TPQN = 480).
* TPQN: Ticks Per Quarter Note

●Example of an Exclusive Message and Calculating a
Checksum
Roland Exclusive messages are transmitted with a checksum at the end (before F7)
to make sure that the message was correctly received. The value of the checksum is
determined by the address and data (or size) of the transmitted exclusive message.
❍ How to Calculate the Checksum (Hexadecimal
Numbers are Indicated by ‘H’)
The checksum is a value derived by adding the address, size and checksum itself and
inverting the lower 7 bits.
Here’s an example of how the checksum is calculated. We will assume that in the
exclusive message we are transmitting, the address is aa bb ccH and the data or size
is dd ee H.
aa + bb + cc + dd + ee + = sum
sum / 128 = quotient ... remainder
128 - remainder = checksum
(However, the checksum will be 0 if the remainder is 0.)
<Example> Setting REVERB MACRO to ROOM 3
According to the “Parameter Address Map,” the REVERB MACRO Address is 40 01 30H,
and ROOM
3 is a value of 02H. Thus,
This means that F0 41 10 42 12 40 01 30 02 0D F7 is the message we transmit.
●About Tuning
In MIDI, individual Parts are tuned by sending RPN #1 (Master Fine Tuning) to the
appropriate MIDI channel.
In MIDI, an entire device is tuned by either sending RPN #1 to all MIDI channels being
used, or by sending a System Exclusive MASTER TUNE (address 40 00 00H).
RPN #1 allows tuning to be speci ed in steps of approximately 0.012 cents (to be
precise, 100/8192 cent), and System Exclusive MASTER TUNE allows tuning in steps of
0.1 cent. One cent is 1/100th of a semitone.
The values of RPN #1 (Master Fine Tuning) and System Exclusive MASTER TUNE are
added together to determine the actual pitch sounded by each Part.
Frequently used tuning values are given in the following table for your reference.
Values are in hexadecimal (decimal in parentheses).
●The Scale Tune Feature (Address: 40 1x 40)
The scale Tune feature allows you to nely adjust the individual pitch of the notes
from C through B. Though the settings are made while working with one octave,
the ne adjustments will a ect all octaves. By making the appropriate Scale Tune
settings, you can obtain a complete variety of tuning methods other than equal
temperament. As examples, three possible types of scale setting are explained below.
❍ Equal Temperament
This method of tuning divides the octave into 12 equal parts. It is currently the most
widely used form of tuning, especially in occidental music. On this instrument, the
default settings for the Scale Tune feature produce equal temperament.
❍ Just Temperament (Keytone C)
The three main chords resound much more beautifully than with equal temperament, but this bene t can only be obtained in one key. If transposed, the chords tend
to become ambiguous.
The example given involves settings for a key in which C is the keynote.
❍ Arabian Scale
By altering the setting for Scale Tune, you can obtain a variety of other tunings suited
for ethnic music. For example, the settings introduced below will set the unit to use
the Arabian Scale.
Example Settings
Note name Equal Temperament Just Temperament Arabian Scale
(Keytone C)
C 0 0 -6
C# 0 -8 +45
D 0 +4 -2
D# 0 +16 -12
E 0 -14 -51
F 0 -2 -8
F# 0 -10 +43
G 0 +2 -4
G# 0 +14 +47
A 0 -16 0
A# 0 +14 -10
B 0 -12 -49
The values in the table are given in cents. Refer to the explanation of Scale Tuning to
convert these values to hexadecimal, and transmit them as exclusive data.
For example, to set the tune (C-B) of the Part1 Arabian Scale, send the data as follows:
F0 41 10 42 12 40 11 40 3A 6D 3E 34 0D 38 6B 3C 6F 40 36 0F 50 F7
<Example> Set the tuning of MIDI channel 3 to A4 = 442.0 Hz
Send RPN#1 to MIDI channel 3. From the above table, the value is 45 03H.
The parameters with”#1” or “#2” at the end of parameter name can be controlled with
each exclusive message”Part EFX CONTROL 1” and “Part EFX CONTROL 2.”
